Hi there

We are needing to update fields for child tasks from the parent view.

Currently it looks like we can change the "summary", "status", "priority", "Assignee" fields from the parent view but no other fields that we may want to adjust from that this view.

Is the functionality limited to just being able to change those fields?

In the screenshot below, I am able to change the first 4 columns in-situ, but not able to change the Due Date, or any other field I choose to display here.

Hi @Christina Tomter 

Welcome to the community!

You can click on the Configure Column icon to add or remove columns.

Hi there Sam,

I am aware of that toggle and I added the columns that we need to see in this view.

My issue is I cannot edit the fields from this parent view. I can edit "Summary", "Priority", "Status", and "Assignee", but not any of the additional column data that I am choosing to show there. In your screenshot, are you able to adjust the story points field from that view?
